Why I Love President Duterte (You Should Too!)

President Duterte,

                  Good day! I would like to show my gratitude towards you, as there have been many progresses and changes during your administration. I appreciate you for the cleanup of Boracay and Manila Bay. Nowadays, environment is no longer valued that much, I admire you for taking the courage to protect and preserve the beauty of our country’s nature. I also admire that you have been fulfilling your promises during your campaign.

                  The Filipinos wanted change and people are tired in hearing beautiful speeches without being transformed into concrete actions to help the poor and the oppressed. The previous presidents of the Philippines were telling us that our economy had improved yet the tables of the poor still lack the proper food for their nourishment. Many people are still facing the same problems: as to where to find money to buy medicine, food, and other needs. Many parents cannot afford to send their children to school due to the lack of financial capacity. But eversince your term had started these problems had solution that improved these said issues.

                 Thank you for being our president. You did well in serving us during your 6-year term as president. I, as one of the people of the Philippines admire your leadership. However, there may be times that you may fail and disappoint us, but you can make it up easily. Once again, thank you Mr. President and may God give you long life with good health and peace of mind despite all the problems you are facing as the leader of this nation and normal person living on earth.

 

Sincerely,

Keira Lian Concepcion Padre

    Despite of the leadership of our president that some people didn't like, you're still showing gratitude and respect to our leader, and that is a good thing. Love it!
